I Told You So - Coppelius

A precious little diamond I can see

It’s clear she feels the same way about me

I have no fear, my love, to confess

Her replies so far were always yes

Myself revealed while holding her hand

My feelings and wishes she will understand

I take a closer look, I deserve the best

Put on my spectacles she will pass the test

I don’t need to bring her flowers to make her smile

No matter what I ask her for, there’s no denial

I told you so

I told you so

I told you so

No blame, no guilt, no accusations there

Only her patient silence I must bear

If I wanted her, I can make her sing

She’s not complaining about anything

If I asked her for a dance just right here

In her eyes delight so crystal clear

I told you so

I told you so

I told you so
